Using Margins, Really annoying but probably easy.

Sep 18, 2019 03:25 PM|masterdineen|LINK

if I have 4 objects vertically inline with each other.

ie Label1, Textbox1, Label2, Textbox2

I am satisfied with the positioning of Label1, Textbox1 & Label2.

but I want to move Textbox2 to the Right a bit WITHOUT affecting anything else, ie a LEFT MARGIN will not push the other 3 objects to the left as well.

I just want Label2 to move to the right a bit.

How do I do that.??

here we go

See markup below.

All I want to do is move TextBox1 to the right a bit Say 50px, without affecting anything else whilst keeping everything else inline with each other.

I try to do with with margin, but whatever is to the left or right ( Depending on the margin I use ) everything is push away from each other.

see markup below. Regard Rob

Hi masterdineen,

masterdineen
All I want to do is move TextBox1 to the right a bit Say 50px

To move the TextBox1 to the right you need to use the margin-left property.

Note: If you change the position of Textbox1, td will change relatively. You can set margin-left=50px for Label1 to restore the original style.

<style>
        #TextBox1{
            margin-left:50px;
        }
        #Label1{
            margin-left:50px;
        }     
    </style>

The result:

Best regards,

Sam
